Description

Chaussure de ski La presente Invention a pour objet une chaussure de ski comportant une semelle rigide et une tige munie de moyens de fermeture. Ski boot The subject of the present invention is a ski boot comprising a rigid sole and an upper provided with closure means.

Avee des chaussures de ce type, il etait jusqu'ici pratiquement exclu de faire de la manche ä ski car la semelle rigide ne peut pas suivre les mouvements du pied. With boots of this type, it has hitherto been practically impossible to ski sleeve because the rigid sole cannot follow the movements of the foot.

0n a propose d'eviter cet inconvenient en realisant des fixations de ski permettant ä la chaussure d'etre retenue ä 1'avant et de se soulever ä 1'arriere par rapport au ski. Une telle disposition ne donne cependant pas satisfaction car pour la manche, non seulement 1e talon de la chaussure doit pouvoir se soulever par rapport au ski mais la semelle doit etre souple pour suivre les mou- vements de manche normale du pied. 0r si la semelle est rigide mais artieulee ä 1'avant, comme indique ci-dessus, la position du pied de 1'usager est telle qu'il manche pra- tiquement sur la pointe du pied. It has been proposed to avoid this drawback by producing ski bindings allowing the boot to be retained at the front and to be lifted at the rear relative to the ski. However, such an arrangement is not satisfactory because for the sleeve, not only must the heel of the boot be able to rise relative to the ski, but the sole must be flexible in order to follow the normal sleeve movements of the foot. Or if the sole is rigid but hinged at the front, as indicated above, the position of the user's foot is such that he almost sticks on tiptoe.

La presente Invention vise ä remedier ä cet incon- vdnient et la chaussure de ski qui en fait 1'objet se dis- tingue par une enveloppe Interieure destinee ä s'adapter au pied de 1'usager, et par une semelle souple solidaire de ladite enveloppe et fixde par son extremite avant ä 1'inte- rieur de la chaussure de telle maniere que 1'enveloppe Interieure avec 1e pied puisse se d6placer ä 1'intdrieur de la chaussure pour suivre les mouvements de manche nor male du pied par rapport ä la chaussure dont les moyens de fermeture de la tige ont 6t6 prealablement dngages. The present invention aims to remedy this drawback and the ski boot which is the subject of it is distinguished by an inner envelope intended to adapt to the foot of the user, and by a flexible sole integral with said envelope and fixed by its front end to the inside of the shoe in such a way that the inner envelope with the foot can move inside the shoe to follow the normal sleeve movements of the foot with respect to the foot. the shoe whose means for closing the upper have been disengaged beforehand.

Le dessin annexe represente, ä titre d'exemple, une forme d'execution de la chaussure de ski faisant 1'objet de la presente Invention. The appended drawing shows, by way of example, one embodiment of the ski boot forming the subject of the present invention.

La fig. 1 est une coupe longitudinale ä travers la chaussure. fig. 1 is a longitudinal section through the shoe.

La fig. 2 est une vue semblable ä la fig. 1 dune variante. fig. 2 is a view similar to fig. 1 of a variant.

La chaussure de ski montree ä la fig. 1 comporte une semelle rigide 1 et une tige 2 relativement souple et munie de moyens de fermeture non reprdsentes. Ces moyens peuvent etre constitues par un lauge du type traditionnel, par des crochets ou par une fermeture ä curseur. The ski boot shown in fig. 1 comprises a rigid sole 1 and a relatively flexible upper 2 and provided with closure means not shown. These means can be constituted by a lauge of the traditional type, by hooks or by a slider closure.

Une enveloppe Interieure 3 destinde ä s'adapter au pied de 1'usager est munie dune semelle souple 4 fixee ä son extremitd avant ä 1'interieur de la chaussure par des clous 5. 0n pourrait bien entendu fixer cette extre- mite de semelle souple de n'importe quelle autre maniere par collage, rivetage, couture, etc. An inner envelope 3 intended to adapt to the foot of the user is provided with a flexible sole 4 fixed at its front end to the inside of the shoe by nails 5. Of course, this end of the flexible sole could be fixed in any other way by gluing, riveting, sewing, etc.

La semelle souple 4 est munie ä l'arriere dune saillie 6 et la face Interieure du talon de la semelle rigide 1 presente un logement 7 pour recevoir cette saillie 6 comme represente en traft plein. Lorsque la chaussure est utilisee pour laRTI ID="0001.0268" WI="13" HE="4" LX="1403"LY="1805"> descente ä ski, 1'enveloppe Interieure 3 est fixee ä 1'interieur de la chaussure par 1'intermediaire d'un organe de blocage, par exemple une goupille 8, retenue dans 1e talon de la semelle rigide 1 et traversant la saillie 6. The flexible sole 4 is provided at the rear with a projection 6 and the inner face of the heel of the rigid sole 1 has a housing 7 to receive this projection 6 as shown in full draft. When the boot is used for the RTI ID="0001.0268" WI="13" HE="4" LX="1403"LY="1805"> downhill skiing, the inner envelope 3 is fixed inside the shoe by means of a blocking member, for example a pin 8, retained in the heel of the rigid sole 1 and passing through the projection 6.

Pour la manche ä ski, la goupille 8 est retiree, ce qui libere 1'enveloppe 3 qui constitue en fait une chaussure Interieure. Les moyens de fermeture (non representes) de la tige 2 ayant dte prealablement degages, 1'enveloppe 3 peut suivre les mouvements de manche normale du pied comme montre en traft mixte. For the ski sleeve, the pin 8 is removed, which releases the envelope 3 which in fact constitutes an inner boot. The closing means (not shown) of the upper 2 having already been released, the envelope 3 can follow the normal sleeve movements of the foot as shown in mixed traft.

Dans la variante de la fig. 2, les moyens de fixation de 1'enveloppe Interieure 3 dans la chaussure compren- nent deux brides 9 et 10 passant sur la chaussure pour serrer ladite enveloppe dans la position en traft plein et 1'empecher de se deplacer. In the variant of fig. 2, the means for fixing the Inner casing 3 in the shoe comprise two flanges 9 and 10 passing over the shoe to clamp said casing in the full-traft position and prevent it from moving.

Pour la manche, il suffit de desserrer ces brides 9 et 10 pour permettre ä 1'enveloppe 3 de se deplacer en sui- vant les mouvements du pied comme indique en traft mixte. For the sleeve, it suffices to loosen these straps 9 and 10 to allow the envelope 3 to move following the movements of the foot as indicated in mixed draft.

La chaussure de ski decrite a 1'avantage de pouvoir eire utilisee indiffdremment pour la descente et pour la manche avec les memes fixations, c'est-ä-dire sans 1'inter- vention d'un mecanisme particulier permettant de modi- fier le fonctionnement de la fixation utilisée pour la descente. - The ski boot described has the advantage of being able to be used indiscriminately for the descent and for the handle with the same bindings, that is to say without the intervention of a particular mechanism making it possible to modify the operation of the binding used for the descent. -

Claims

CLAIM Ski boot comprising a rigid sole and an upper provided with closing means, characterized by an inner casing intended to adapt to the foot of the user, and by a flexible sole integral with said casing and fixed by its front end to the inside of the shoe in such a way that the inner envelope with the foot can move inside the shoe to follow the normal walking movements of the foot with respect to the shoe whose means of closing the stem have been cleared beforehand. SUB-CLAIMS 1. Ski boot according to claim, characterized by means for fixing the rear end of the flexible sole in the boot in order to prevent displacement of the inner casing in the boot when the latter is is used for downhill skiing.

2. Ski boot according to claim and sub-claim 1, characterized in that said fastening means comprise a projection secured to the rear end of the flexible sole, a housing formed in the inner face of the heel of the boot to receive said projection, and a locking member to retain this projection in the housing.

3. Ski boot according to claim and sub-claim 1, characterized in that said fastening means comprise at least one strap passing over the boot to clamp the inner casing in the boot and prevent it from moving. .
